Rolycat, zapta, don't waste your time. Getting him to see any view but his own is like trying to teach a pig to sing. It frustrates you and annoys the pig. I learned long ago that when people denigrate others, it's to cover up their own inadequacies. If Rufus feels the need to call Americans dim and morons, let him. We are all probably supremely indifferent as to what he thinks, I know I am. I, for one, will ignore him going forward. If everyone else did, maybe he will just go away.
